cbs 5 reporter cate caugiran can see it all from the embarcadero. that's a sight familiar at this time. >> reporter: i know. thankfully for morning commuters the lights literally came on probably about five minutes ago as we were preparing to tell people to be careful on those roads but we want to make note, it is still off on the far corner of the bridge. you can see there's still a string of lights that they are trying to repair. the issue is getting the electrician to fix those lights. we have video of it earlier. you can take a look right now. the lights were both off on the lower and upper deck of the bay bridge. the bridge is its own entity. it's not on any other grids. metering lights are on a separate system. so when the lights go off on the bridge it's because it specifically is an issue with this bridge way right here. and no other entity would be affected by it. again, the good news is back out live, lights are back on here. traffic seems to be moving smoothly on the bridges. it's clear. before when we are here though it was quite a sight
